Does anyone think that Raikkonen would really be interested in what Michael tells him :shock2:
I think Kimi is smart enough to weed out anything of use to his career, from anyone :wink:
Like what ? drive slowly or you'll break da car ??

Raikkonen doesn't listen to anyone. In fact, most drivers at that level don't.

TK is at that level?

Lets ask <T-K> what he thinks ?
:shock: Well done already TK :D

I didn't say he is at that level, you inserted that inside my quote. It would be better to show that so that <T-K> can follow what has been said easily.

Anyway, no he isn't at that level but I reckon he knows more about this than most.

But lets wait and see what <T-K> says

Agreed. I believe drivers of high caliber tend to be more of a maverick when it comes to taking advice. Then again I am sure it's a different thing to hear an advice from a techie guy who tells Raikkonen to ease down cuz he's eating up the brake pads than Schumi (an ex-rival) telling him to do so.

I sure wish him to be at that level one day. Would be nice to say: "I knew him when we were talking about F1 on the forum" :)

Same here!

When <T-K> makes it, we will all be travelling VIP class on the F1 circuit :D :D

Imagine sitting on <T-K>'s yacht at Monaco or being entertained at the VIP club at Crown in Melbourne :D :D

:party: At the moment I am trying to raise sponsorship to get into the Formula Palmer Audi championship next year....
http://www.formula-palmer-audi.com/index.aspx
Its one of the cheapest form of single seater racing in the UK....that I could find.... :)




Im guessing you want me to comment on how drivers dont listen to anyone at that level?
Well, I am going to answer that one anyway :wink:

It is very true...especially in the young drivers that are near the front of the grid....They dont like the fact that someone might actually be better than them....Its all about Male ego :wink:
I have actually never understood it, as personally I welcome advice and even critisism, because most of the time it means you have done something wrong, and you can learn from it....in most cases...

That is just my naive, youthful opinion.....
